The Kanbar Center for the Performance & the Other Cafe Comedy Showcase present the star of NPR’s “Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me”, PAULA POUNDSTONE. 1 Night Only on April 22, 2017. Hysterical, Spontaneous, Smart Comedy.
Heralded as one of our country’s foremost comics, Paula Poundstone's quick-thinking, unscripted approach to comedy makes for a perfect fit as a regular panelist on NPR’s #1 show, the screwball weekly news quiz show WAIT WAIT... DON'T TELL ME! She also tours regularly, performing standup comedy across the country and is a legend among comics and audiences alike for her remarkable ability to be spontaneous with a crowd. Her interchanges are never mean or done at a person’s expense. She even manages to handle politics without provoking the pall of disapproval received by less artful comics. With the exception of that one time, Paula claims.
… there's a disarming ease in her craft, an immediate sense that she's so quick on her feet you need never worry about the possibility of something going wrong. Nick Zaino with the Boston Globe
What to Expect: Hysterical, spontaneous, surprising smart comedy. The unexpected.
